I'm a big fan of tower defense games, and being able to take them with me on my BlackBerry is a huge plus. The latest comes from Gameloft Inc and is called Mega Tower Assault. The game provides you with 8 different types of towers with which to defend youself. There are 12 maps in 4 settings including beach, snow, platform and lava. The graphics are great and the game is sure to provide hours of entertainment. If you've never tried tower defense before, this is definitely a great way to get started. You'll surely become addicted and won't want to put this one down. Mega Tower Assault is available in BlackBerry App World for just $0.99.

Mega Tower Assault for BlackBerry Smartphones now available
In app world.
Holding "alt", while holding press r.s.t in that order(just the letters no period) then release alt. Or go to menu and refresh list. Refreshes your app world listed apps, I think but when can't see something that cb says is there that normally fixess for me. Seems like it refreshes more than just your app list in other words.hope that helps
looks good and for that price, its worth checking out
I can't see it in app world but I'll have another look later.
Thanks, I also enjoy these type of games!
Wow, amazing!
A nice looking tower defense game at a very nice price that we don't have to make Crackberry Nation look foolish by begging the developer.
I'm going to buy this just to show support and thumb my nose at everyone who belittled themselves with the whole Angry Birds foolishness from yesterday.
Not available for the Tour, not cool.
doesn't seem to work on the torch, dunno if its just this device? Anyone have a torch and are able to play it?
Yes, it works on my Torch. (Kind of lame that it doesn't auto force the landscape orientation though - just tells you to do it.)
Sorry - I was mistaken. It loaded OK, got past the splash screen, asked me if I wanted to enable sound (at that point I posted here)... but it hangs there. I can't get off of the enable sound screen.
I have it on Torch, but its super slow at loading, and it messes with other applications on the phone (Like QuickLaunch and Messaging)
I really like the game though and I would rather keep playing than switch applications to the glitchy messages.
On my Torch I get as far as it asking if I want sound but I can't get it to go past that. Any ideas?
That's as far as I get too. Left the developers a message, but nothing from them yet.
I have had the same issue. I'm stuck at the "Do you want sound?" screen.
I emailed the support address (support@gameloft.com) and they just got back to me to let me know they have a bug on the Torch and they are looking into it. They said it might take a little while to fix and so they were going to give me a free game in compensation in the mean time. I thought this was pretty nice of them.
The seem to have about 38 or so Torch compatible games in the App World at the moment. I emailed them back and told them I would like a copy of Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands.
I will let everyone know when/if I get a copy of it installed!
Thanks, Gameloft!
Thanks for the update. I've emailed them too now. it would be nice if I also got the offer of a free game! We'll see...
Heard from Gameloft support and they told me to delete the app and they will send me another version and see if it works. No offer for a free game however.
Still waiting on the new version.
Has anyone tried it on a 9000 or 9780?
downloaded on 9700, doesn't seem to have an escape key, ie. entered the options menu but cannot get out.
See nothing.
I would try it on ma` 9000 but the app world is not available in ma` country!
Is there any other way to get this game! some OTA....ha?!
weak it apparently doesn't support the 9300, never paid for an app before and i was set to throw down my hard earned 99 cents too
actually it must be at&t that doesn't let me get it, i checked the gameloft website and it says the 9300 is supported
i contacted the support
and well... they said that it's buggy for the torch and theyll have to fix the issue
question tho... for everyone that's installed it for the torch what os are you on???
my friend bought the game as well on his torch and it works fine he's on 246
doesn't work for mine i'm on 448... maybe it's the os version that's not allowing us to play?
I am also unable to get past the sounds question screen and I'm running .448 as well..
Gameloft support has told me they will give me another game in compensation..
It does not work on my Torch, run the the game, turn to landscape format then ask sound mode yes/no, nothing happen after that
Read my comment above. They have a bug, they are aware, and will compensate you with another game.
Said that it wasn't supported on my device and carrier. Anyone on sprint that encountered the same error?
I'm running .450 on my torch and I have the same problem,i get to the sound screen and then it freezes.
No support for Verizon or the 9650, looked like a good TD game too! I had Fierce Towers on my Storm and that was a good TD game.
I'm stuck to the "enable sound" page with 448.
I think I will downgrade to 337, it was working when I had it.
Don't even bother. Purchased after reading, however, contrary to stated description, game only comes with a fraction of the levels, maps, and units advertised. Had a lot of potential, but after quickly playing through what is actually in game, it now collects dust.
